Client - Territorial Army

The Territorial Army (TA) is a part-time volunteer force of the
British Army, and forms around a quarter of the British Army’s total
manpower force. The TA is the largest of all the British reserve forces,
and has bases across the UK.

The TA is a symbol of Britain, and each of its regiments is extremely well-respected.

Project - Exterior and Interior Signage for the TA regiments in Greater London

Design Brief

The Lettering Centre team worked with the Territorial Army to create a
range of signage for the regiments in and around London. These
regiments included the London Irish Rifles, the London Support Squadron,
and the 131 Independent Commando Squadron.

Exterior signage comprised of both projecting signs mounted on framework, and wall-mounted signs.

For the interior signage The Lettering Centre was asked to create
wooden plaques and commemorative boards. We also manufactured
wall-mounted display cabinets.

Solution/Description

The Lettering Centre manufactured a range of standing
projection signs, which comprised of embossed aluminium, curved to give
the impression of 3D signage, and mounted on a metal framework. These
were finished in regiment/squadron-specific colours.

Inside the buildings we manufactured large varnished wooden boards,
and stenciled gold lettering onto them. These were then mounted to the
walls. The boards were intended for displaying commemorative
information, and thus were highly polished to create the feel of luxury
and importance
